If Diane Roberts’ topic had been the joys of fracking, the secretary of state’s office would have seen no conflict with San Luis’ core mission.

Diane Roberts’ background would not seem to qualify her to speak on either Florida history OR the environment. We have enough blowhards doing “creative writing” about the environment, thank you, and it tells us nothing of importance.

That’ll teach Diane Roberts to tell the truth!

I guess it’s true what they say: March showers breed April mosquitos.

This ‘Nole fan would like to see or great state of Florida have an NCAA national champion football team and basketball team. Would be great for recruiting.

I am not “thrilled” with the coach not being thrilled with his team! Geez! One scrimmage does not a season make!

No, I believe it was something the homeless could identify with, and an eye-opener for everybody else. We have no way of knowing what some people go through.

See on CNN crawl: “Boeing 777 will struggle to maintain altitude once the fuel tanks are empty.” Say what?

To the Democrat: Please, please publish Diane Robert’s speech at Mission San Luis that was cancelled by the governor’s office. A much larger audience is eagerly waiting!

Perhaps the neatly bagged dog poop was intentionally left by the trail to be picked up on the return loop. No one likes carrying warm poop.

You’re wrong, as usual, about UF fans being unbearable during the Final Four. We’re smart enough to wait until AFTER we win to start bragging.

If Jeb runs, Marco will not be able to be considered for VP.

I was watching TV last night and ten commercials came on during one break in the show. I forgot what I was watching.

I plan to be prepared for global warming by installing a larger air conditioner.

Our self-appointed City Commission watchdog needs to bark less and wag more.

I now see that Rick Scott has saved us all. I now believe that he cares about all people, not just the rich and powerful right wing conservatives…. APRIL FOOLS!

Dear President G.W. Bush, I apologize for ever saying you would be the worst president in my lifetime.

I would like to read Gabardi column, but every time I see his face I feel like throwing up, so I just skip that page. How bout leaving his picture off.

I also hope other Floridians get the same opportunity Rick Scott had, too, to be Governor! I still think our Governor should be a natural born Floridian.

Of course, Carter is not the worst president; those happen to be Reagan and Bush, Jr.

I find it interesting that 3 of the 4 wealthiest members of Congress are Democrats ,ie the party of “lets end income inequality”.

“Affordable” may not be the first word that comes to mind for Obamacare recipients when they get to December and still haven’t met their massive deductibles.

May I suggest that you look up “Zing” in Websters? You like to feature the naked Emperor and proclaim him clothed.

Hint to wannabe Zingers. Do not really Zing. Submit warm, fuzzy, feel good pabulum that can not possibly offend anyone and you will see the light of day.

Is April Black History Month all over again?

I am white and rooting for Dr. Mangum – the graphic lay out of yesterday’s page 2A is an outrage! (or some sick April Fools joke). The Tallahassee Democrat is rudderless!

And Elmira’s first words are: “There’s going to be some changes around here!”

Be fluent in several foreign languages before you buy the latest & greatest high tech gadget.

The State’s cancellation of Diane Roberts appearance at Mission San Luis is Charlie Christ’s opportunity. Wonder if he will capitalize on it.

Talk about transparency in government, who believes Diane Roberts was canceled because her message had nothing to do with the Department of State’s core mission.

Fathers play a key role in women’s pregnancies – duh.

I like Diane Roberts, don’t you?

If Hoppy Lobby, in making business decisions, is so sensitive about funding abortion-like birth control methods, why does it make the business decision to import products from China, where every method of birth control is widely used and where forced abortions occasionally still occur as official policy?

How exciting! Personal responsibility at its finest. There are now at least 6 million people that will pay for their own health care when they are sick. The taxpayers will no longer pay for their uncompensated care.

soon Tallahassee will look just like any other modern city; everyone *wants* this, we will vote with our $$$ and our cars. *each* person surely wants a safe place for their families, do they not?

Hate to burst your bubble, but when you say “We all know…” or “Everyone agrees…” or “No one wants…” or something similar, you’re wrong.

22 gas station bays too many? NO! wait five years and they will need 22 more, the growth is coming, people. everyone get ready to sell your house and Move to the new 200,000 people suburb!

Nowhere in the US Constitution will you find the clause “separation of church and state.”

Let’s be specific Barack: How many young, healthy, previously uninsured people have signed up for Obamacare and paid their first premium? I’m guessing about 6 million shy of the 7 million needed.

While Rick Scott can rightfully claim 1) cutting corporate taxes and 2) cutting the state workforce; his “job creation” claim is just as easily attributable to Obama or to the national economy simply healing itself through market forces.

As I ride my bicycle by the beautiful farms in south Georgia, I wonder why I do not see any supporters of immigration change working in the fields!?

Gee, that stuff about “we have the right to educate and socialize our own children” and “no legitimate stance by anyone, black or white, to question our right to preserve and promote our culture, history and experience” sounds an awful lot like the old timers I grew up with in the segregation era of the 1960’s. Surely we are beyond this or at, at least, should be.

Those who want to write their.own obits need to update them once a year since they

Don’t know when they will get the call!

The 4 million people who waited until the last day to sign up for healthcare need to kick themselves in the posterior and then go pay the full price at the hospital.

I suppose the homeless people going to the Opera had to take a bath, brush their teeth, wear clean clothes etc. The new executive director is doing his best to make the homeless look impotent er I mean important. As they say appearance is everything to the elite. Damn the facts.

I like baseball. Don’t you?

We’ll, do tell, a university campus founded in 1851 has some old classrooms. Get a grip kids, the buildings are routinely inspected and don’t have a thing to do with your ability to learn.

Note to PAC supporters: Homeless people need medical care, Job training, dental care, etc. Not trips to the opera at a PAC.

The man on the one dollar bill was quoted as saying: If Freedom of Speech is taken away, silent and unheard, like lambs we will be led to the slaughter.

When you cut through the PC and BS, “conscious uncoupling” is divorcing.

If the current change in The Rhythm route is any indicator, the changes to regular service will be another clusterflop like decentralization.

President Putin appears to withdraw some troops from Ukraine border. They are probably the ones he doesn’t want killed first because they protect him from ending dead I guess.

Was the release by Obama’s Homeland Security in 2013 of 70,000 illegals with criminal convictions predicated on them subsequently voting, early and often as well as illegally, for Democrats?

North Korea & South Korea exchange several hundred artillery shots at each other and don’t hit anything but ocean. Talk about gun control. I think these guys have it nailed.

Delaware judge Jan Jurden sentenced du Pont heir Robert Richards IV to probation for raping his 3-year old daughter, saying the poor little rich guy would not “fare well” in prison. So how poor must you be to fare well in prison?

Do so many people really have to take their Pit Bulls to Cascade Park? It was overwhelming in number and lack of close attention. Will not go back unless this changes.

I know we can’t ban all dogs at Cascade Park, but I sure wish Pit Bulls could be banned. I was terrified for my small grandchild, very sad and will not go back.

Obamacare working? Huh? Where?

Climate change deniers laughing at scientists sounds like the same people who laughed at Noah….Nothing has changed in thousands of years. Sorry for our grandkids.

One never knows what Charlie Crist will want to do or be next. I am happy with Scott and his boring consistency.

The phrase is, “politicians should be changed as often as diapers and for the same reason”.

My cable bill went up again and all there is to watch are vampires, werewolves, zombies and democrats.

FAMU way, nice. I will bet the business owners on Lafayette street are glad to see that one starting.

I’m all for unisex bathrooms, but whatever you are please just put the seat down.

If a business refuses to serve homosexuals based on their religious conviction, why don’t they refuse to serve adulterers? Fair is fair.

Had to wipe off my glasses – nothing in Sports about the women’s basketball tournament today? Nah I must have missed it. Combed through the section… Nothing! Come on, Sports Editors, the women can really play and lots of us follow them!
